People in the hall were stunned, Snape stood there gaping for a second before he registered the words and then his usual pale face started to turn red. Or at least Orion imagined it was happening.
"Detention Right! I get it I get it, there is not anything more you can do anyway. Just get your ass down, I will tag along when I get time." Orion said with no particular expression on his face, though he was making a little strange face due to his head throbbing.
Knowing that Snape was about to explode, he ended up talking first. He didn't want to talk more than necessary.
Hearing this another gasp was resounded by the students around. Dumbledore frowns on the other hand.
Before Snape who was looking like someone broke his favorite cauldron was about to shout but before that Dumbledore spoke up.
"Mr Ambrosius. I did not expect this kind mannerisms from you. I'm very disappointed young man." Dumbledore said trying to take control of the situation. It's not just the image of Hogwarts in front of other students but Orion too.
Others don't know but Dumbledore has seen what Orion is capable of. last time he met him in Spain, the boy made short work of both the followers of Gellert and the Aurors.
And his years of honed instincts were telling him that the current Orion was way more dangerous. Though he couldn't sense any particular magic coming from him but he rather not push the boy, he was already looking like he wasn't doing much better with handling his anger.
Dumbledore was observing Orion with keen intent all this time. Orion never planned to talk like that, at least the way he was quietly and slowly moving to his usual seat beside both Rose and Daphne, it didn't look like that.
But the boy was looking annoyed, very annoyed and the way he was behaving. Like he just doesn't want to talk or deal with all of them.
And more than anything, the recent realization about him. The name Ambrosius, he really wanted to know whether they held any gravity.
"I too am disappointed at my shitty luck but can I do anything about it. No right.
You wanna add some punishment, go ahead, as long as it doesn't require me to do anything which increases this fucking headache of mine, I am game." Orion said animately as he massaged his head slowly, his pain and irritation actually making him just want to end the talking right there.
"Come to my office after the dinner Mr Ambrosius. We have much to talk about." Dumbledore said with his grandfatherly tone as ending the matter right there. There was a feeling inside him that further even talking with Orion could have brought trouble. At which he was right.
"Dumbledore..." Snape was about to say something but just before that Dumbledore turned to him and immediately said.
"I will talk to the boy myself Severus, Let's just drop the matter for now," Dumbledore said firmly with his tone. Making sure that Snape understands.
Orion didn't care about this anymore. He just slowly moved to his seat between both Rose and Daphne.
Seeing the boy coming to them, both of them were finally ready to bombard him with thousands of questions but just as Orion came there he said.
"I have a splitting headache, try not to make too much noise," Orion said and the moment he sat down, instead of destroying the mountain of food which pretty much everyone from Hogwarts was expecting, he put both of his hands on the table and put his head down on the table. Instantly falling asleep.
'He didn't even touch the food.' Rose and Daphne thought, finally their worry about Orion coming back. Orion not eating at dinner time. That blasphemy, something is clearly wrong with the boy or that person is not Orion at all.
Others also noticed this and started to chat, all muttering about how much Orion was unrecognizable.
Even Snape found this unnatural.
Dumbledore on the side saw this and now was clearly sure that something was wrong with the boy. The change in his behaviour, hair colour, that usual smiling and nonchalant looking face turning into that frowning one with a hint of stress in it.
Those blue eyes which were usually vibrant now had a dark tink in them while they looked even more powerful for something and only a little below them those dark circles.
'What happened with him ?' Dumbledore pondered.
He was not the only one thinking about this. Many people, both knowing Orion beforehand or meeting him for the first time were only thinking about him.
Dumbledore after pondering a little just shook his head and returned back at talking about the the Tri-Wizard competition.
Orion knowing the content of the talk already, didn't bother to stay awake as he was already sleep. And according to him, this might be a regular thing this year, he need to rest as much as possible.
